The St-Labre 200 Inc. requires teams to build their own go-karts within 24 hours. Using supplied materials, teams are challenged to build go-karts from scratch on the first day and race them the next day in a fast-paced, nail biting 200 lap race on a quarter mile dirt track. The main race takes place on Saturday and has the entire crowd in suspense.
Registration usually happens March 1st at midnight and sells out quickly.
What started off as a competition between the Grenier brothers and friends has blown up into a provincial festival with over 50 participants and 100 spectators in the first year, to 120 participants and 1500 spectators 5 years later. “St-Labre 200 Inc. is all about getting people together and having a great time” said former committee member Lucien Grenier, “We can accomplish this all while raising money for many local organisations, charities and or causes.”
Join us in St-Labre, a hidden gem in south-east Manitoba, where you will witness this little community show you just how much heart it has. St-Labre 200 Inc. also includes many free activities for the whole family such as planned kids activities, bounce balloon castles, the world renown Rubber Boot Toss, bike races, live music and the best backyard fireworks display in rural Manitoba.
St-Labre 200 Speedway grounds has a lot of room for camping, so bring your tent, camper, RV or blanket and get set for a great weekend.
This morning we dropped off the dry goods that were brought to St Labre 200. @southeasthelpinghands were happy to see everything that was collected, including all reusable bags that were collected for “Be a fan and bring a can”.
Thank you!!!
The 17th St-Labre 200 grounds are now back to a field. Volunteers stayed behind and helped with taking down tents, removing snow fence and track markers. They helped with putting away bleachers, signage and technical equipment. They helped clean the canteen, toilets and the grounds. By 5:30, we had one lone kart on the grounds.
Thank you to our volunteers, thank you to our sponsors, thank you to all the teams and most importantly, thank you to all our spectators, wether it was your first time or your 17th time, thank you for showing up and supporting us.
We will see you next year.💙
